Can I get pregnant after having a baby??

I just had my first baby she's 3months old now, I haven't got my period and I'm worry because my husband and me been having sex with no protection, can I still get pregnant even though I haven't got my period? Please help!!

Yes. You can still ovulate and not have your period. Your chances are decreased but it can still happen. I would recommend getting on something right away, because it takes your body to get on a normal cycle, especially if you're nursing.

After any delivery, a mother needs to allow her body to rest and heal. Ideally, this means little or no housework or running after other little ones. The maternal mortality rate is highest in the postpartum period, so special consideration needs to be given to the care of the mother. Take time to understand the limitations of a new mother and the kind of care that might be necessary. Keep in mind that it is normal for a new mother to feel overwhelmed emotionally and physically drained. I found some really interesting information that will assist you as it did me. Information on how to get pregnant fast and have a healthy pregnancy, the hidden truth behind everyday activities &amp; their impact on your fertility, simple things you can do every day to increase your chances of conceiving, even in women with PCOS or have an irregular cycle, and so much more.
